Sneetches submitted by SBNB on June 24, 2014, 12:05pm There are a few stories in this book, and all are good. My favorite though are the sneetches and the zax.

A favorite growing up submitted by Ilyjtwya on July 16, 2014, 4:16am I remember reading (hearing) this book countless times growing up, and purchased it for my own children. I highly recommend it. The story of the Sneetches is very valuable for discussing prejudice with young children.

Great Lesson submitted by AprilCDB on June 18, 2015, 2:02pm The Sneetches is one of my all time favorite Dr. Seuss stories about how the Sneetches are all really the same even though they may look different. A great lesson for kids to learn, which I wanted to pass down to my son. When I read it to him, he seemed to enjoy it.

Mrs. McCave submitted by Sara W on July 13, 2015, 9:39pm My favorite story here is the story of Mrs. McCave who had 23 sons and she named them all Dave. It's short, it's funny, and it reminds me of Shel Silverstein poems. I enjoy Dr. Seuss, but some of his stories get pretty long, especially when you have a kid who wants them read over and over again. Sneetches and Other Stories is a great way to enjoy classic Seuss with greater variety. And seriously, don't miss out on Mrs. McCave. That's a winner.

The Sneetches submitted by candyceh811 on July 26, 2015, 9:24pm A great Dr. Seuss story with an even better lesson.

One of my favorites submitted by whitneywk on August 31, 2015, 5:53am This fun, rhyming book examines the issue of discrimination in a way that makes a person realize how senseless it is to exclude or dislike people who are different from you. I appreciate the fun and silliness in this book, but love that it has such a great message.

the ultimate social Seuss submitted by lisa on July 23, 2018, 12:03pm Man, he was good. Best part: when people forget whether they had a star to begin with or not. Wish we could do that. The chaos leading up to it would totally be worth it.

We v. Them as Sneetches. submitted by tbbrown76 on July 18, 2019, 2:02pm It gets confusing trying to keep them straight. We're all just people. Great lesson, especially today. Recommended.

Good submitted by TLW1998 on July 21, 2019, 9:06pm Good stories with some good lessons

Us vs them submitted by Aimless on July 24, 2019, 6:22pm We are all the same. And dr Seuss teaches us in this book

Good Collection of Lesser Known Seuss Stories submitted by alemmon100 on August 6, 2021, 11:09am Great message against discrimination based on appearances. Other fun stories as well.

A must have collection submitted by teamgehrke on July 18, 2022, 4:18pm The book contains 4 stories. The first two Sneetches & Too Many Daves are classics, the other 2 are ok to passable. I would definitely recommend Sneetches any any Suess fan. One of my favorites.

Is it a five star? submitted by suttonp on July 25, 2022, 2:00pm Or is it a no star? or is it a 1/2 star?
All of the above!!!
Let's all get along
